Lol no need to get crazy over it. It's just a commercial. It was not offensive, it was nothing more than a company trying to sell their product.

For anyone to get upset over this stupid.

While it might be a dumb commercial, the fact that so many people got mad over it is what I found intriguing. I mean, it's a commercial selling a product. If one doesn't like it then just don't buy the product.

Um yes. And I have in the past too many times to count. Its called voting with your dollars. Any company that has a liberal agenda looses my business and I go to a conservative competitor if there is one. Simple. If there isn't one I choose the one thst does the least damage through liberal contributiins and supporting and promoting liberal causes.

you seem to spend more time suggesting your hatred for liberals than you do supporting conservatives...

Hate is the wrong word. Save that for real enemies like ISIS. Liberals is more, disdain, contempt, or pity depending on the individual. As for support of conservatives, I'm extremely supportive as my post shows. Conservatives don't march. We have real jobs. The angst displayed by liberals against Trump was every bit as real and powerful for conservatives against Obama and Hillary. And this was because of their policies, not some racial or gender discrimination bs the left likes to try to use as a conservative label. However, we're more mature, less vociferous, and have more responsibilities to go marching around protesting the left's bs. Seeing these protests as a conservative only galvanizes me and any of my conservative friends that I talk to against the left, justifies to us that Trump and supporting conservatives was not only right, but imperative, and gives us no end of entertaining clips of crying ignorant snowflakes to watch on a daily basis.

A good example of this bs was Judge Gorsuch. When Kagan or Sotomayor were nominated to the bench by President Obama, the right didn't filibuster theem before going to an up or down vote. They obviously were as liberal leaning as you can get but republican senators approved them anyway because they were quality judges. Now when a far less right leaning judge who had already had senate conformation to a lower court is nominated by Trump
1.they complain the republicans stole an obama pick. They didn't. This precedent had already been set by Biden under George Bush Sr. by Joe Biden to not have a last year appointment.
2. Never had a judge been filibustered for going to an up or down vote before. Good job Chuckie.
3. His credentials were impeccable and far more acceptable to the senate body as a whole than any of the 3 gals on the court.
4. The nuclear option had been exercised first by the left under Obama
5. Most judges do not reach the magical 60 votes needed
6. He was replacing a cinservative seat, maintaining the balance if the court.

The left lost and now
1. They look like fools
2. This greenlights far more conservative appointments by trump
3. The left blew a huge amount of political capital on a loss and something they were going to loose and not on something that was a fight they could have made a difference
4. They demonstrated their unwillingness to work on anything to the current administration giving them the greenlight to exclude them as the right was excluded under Obama.

Sad but Chuckie and Nancy wanted to throw their temper tantrums and now they've marginalize themselves and further hurt their misguided party. I worry for the left. When Kennedy was President they left was for a strong military, lower taxes, and promoting small business as exemplified by his final speech in Dallas. Clinton tried the hard left road and quickly moderated to become a semisuccessful president. Now its all about seeing how far left they can go, and putting people who can raise donor money from wall street and the extreme left multibillionaire donors in power instead of capable politicians. Hillary and Nancy are poster children for this.

Just more diversity shit rammed down your throat, along with a terrible commercial to boot.

More of the diversity of skin color and appearance is what matters, not diversity of opinion. Notice how every cop in the commercial is white, while the "protestors" are every mutt and Jeff under the sun being oppressed. Same crap.

Exactly. As if diversity of appearance isn't widely accepted already by people of all colors. Majes me sad that even commercials are playing into this bs talking point of the left.

I barely even know who these Jenners/Kardashian people are, and I intend to keep it that way.

America is a land that celebrates trolls by giving them the attention they desire. If they ignored such people our country would be much better off.

Personally I wish companies would focus more on the products they manufacture and try to make a better product than inserting themselves into politics.

Pepsi, Starbucks and Subaru are notorious for this dumb shit

Its one of the primary reasons I have avoided Subaru as a DD for so many years

Agreed. And why do they feel like its a good idea? The country is split in two. If you do you're pissing off half the country. Stupid. You don't see chick fil-et doing dumb conservative commercials?
